"I want to work like a dog, doing what I was born to do with joy and purpose. I want to play like a dog, with total, jolly abandon." - Oprah Winfrey

We’ll take a glass of Chardognay, please
‘Tis the season for hosting, holiday happy hours, and maybe an extra glass of your favorite Cab after yet another company gift exchange.
Sometimes there’s nothing better than unwinding with a glass of vino and your best friend by your side. Unfortunately, if your pal is a pup, they can’t exactly participate in wine night...until now.
Dog wine has officially hit the market and it has our interests piqued. Apollo Peak, “the original winery for pets,” launched three varietals - Zinfantail, Malbark, and Chardognay - that all have purposes beyond just being a fun treat to serve your pet. They utilize natural ingredients like chamomile, anise, and peppermint, which can help with calming dog anxiety or freshening breath.
Although all of the ingredients are marked as pet-safe, much like supplements for humans, they aren’t scientifically proven or FDA regulated. Most faux dog-wine producers still recommend consulting with your vet before rushing out to buy Fido their own wine bowl.
So, what do you think of this liquid trend? Would you raise a glass with your pooch? Send us an email if you’ve ever tried dog wine, we’d love to know your reviews!

You’ll be smiling for days after seeing this cozy boy.
